This is just utterly irresponsible and the worst politics of the gutter. Shame.
Last night Parliament had the opportunity to vote to support a ceasefire and the release of hostages in Gaza.
Sadly, the Labour party is in chaos and is failing to deliver what constituents are demanding.

I think we're getting far too close to government for Hilary; she's obviously getting uncomfortable with the thought of actually being able to change the country.
So she's off to find another protest outfit where she can shout slogans from the sidelines in complete comfort.
I have resigned from Labour and thus my role as Momentum Co-Chair.
I can no longer support a Labour Party led by a man who backed war crimes in Gaza, u-turns on climate & abandons children to poverty.
I will now sit as an Independent councillor in Worthing.

Kemi's a bit younger than me but Major was still in power when she was 16 so I'm baffled about her minimum wage claim.
Major first came to power when I was 17 and I worked in a factory during holidays. There was no minimum wage and I paid no taxes because I was paid so little.
🗣️Kemi Badenoch: I know what it's like flipping burgers at 16, on minimum wage, and then watching my pay slip away to taxes. What I want to do is cut fuel duty but we need to look at why the cost-of-living is rising and the problem is inflation

Is Laura seriously suggesting that MPs in the UK should stop carrying out their duties toward their constituents because of a foreign war over which HMG has negligible control?
Does she think this about all foreign wars? Or just the ones involving Israel?
It is deeply jarring to see MPs here in the UK going about their ‘duties’, pretending it’s business as usual, taking pictures of visits, tweeting about nonsense when there is a genocide unfolding in Gaza. We see the scale of atrocities before our eyes, their response is woeful.
